Genshin Impact has been increasing in popularity and continually growing its player base. The frequent introduction of new characters and story arcs helps to keep the game fresh and exciting for new and existing players. The official Genshin Impact 2.5 live stream revealed even more about this next release.
We already know that the character released for this version is Yae Miko, but during the live stream, miHoYo also revealed her character art for the first time. So far, Yae Miko looks to be a five-star electro character.
Aside from releasing the character art for Yae Miko, the Genshin Impact team also made another announcement. During the version 2.5 release, there will also be an introduction to a new boss domain. Raidan Shogun will be available as the weekly boss in the Trounce Domains. After her first introduction, where we were able to see her in battle in her deadly avatar, we haven’t seen her at her full potential since. Now players can enjoy her at full strength once again as an opponent.
This latest patch will also introduce new sub-bosses known as the Shadowy Husk. You can encounter these bosses in the new Enkanomiya region. These creatures take a few different forms, such as standard-bearers, line-breakers, and defenders. They are unique in that they dissuade shield-bot characters like Zhongli as they mimic the characters’ shield.
Apart from these character and boss updates we saw in the live Twitter stream, we’ve also got a release date for Genshin Impact 2.5. Developers miHoYo announced that the latest version of the game will drop on February 16. They’ve also provided some guidance on Twitter for how to unlock Yae Miko’s story quest. We’re very excited to see the improvements and the new characters and bosses.
